@davidwjgill David, the provenance of many objects in the collection (including the mask) are on our website: http://t.co/cp0Nqmhdi4

I remain puzzled how the Egyptian mummy mask excavated at Saqqara and acquired by the St Louis Art Museum could be in two places at once. And I am intrigued how the documentation and reported collecting histories were authenticated ("due diligence"). An exchange with SLAM suggests that we are expected to believe in the flawed collecting history.
Please could SLAM release the original documents?
